MLK Writing Contest #9!

The resting period is over, and it's time to get cracking again, because the writing contest is here! For the next two weeks, write a short story on one of these following prompts:

Simba's non-lion friend or friends
Nala leaving in search of help
Timon and Pumbaa before Simba
An alternate plan to get Kovu inside Pride Rock (not a fire)


You guys have until Sunday, August 5th to write your stories. When you have your submission finished, PM it to me. I accept both text files (I prefer OpenOffice .odt format, but MS Word .doc also works) and stories embedded into the PM inside a spoiler box.

Word length: Please limit the word length to around 2000 words. You may go a bit over, but remember that people will read your story, as well all the others, so it will only be respectful to keep the length tasteful. Shorter stories are also welcome. The usual writing rules apply: keep the stories PG-13, no plagiarizing, and don't submit something you already wrote previously.
You may resubmit a story, but only if it's done before the deadline. If you resubmit, please PM me with it as though it were a first submission, but tell me that you are resubmitting, and give the file-name some sort of marker to show that it's not a first submission. (Example: storyV2.txt) You may post questions or comments in this topic.

Good luck, everyone, and have fun! :)

Bumping the topic shamelessly. There is less then a week left, and I don't have any submissions yet. :sad:

Sure! The more entries people submit, the better each contest is!

So far, I only have one entry, and there is only one day left. I would love it if more people would write something. :P
